Review:
Though never classified as such, Ronnie Dyson had a cabaret voice — classy but not too stiff with an underlying permeating quality appreciated by R&B and pop fans alike. But other than a few hits, he never got his just dues and will be remembered for “(If You Let Me Make Love to You Then) Why Can’t I Touch You” and little else. Love in All Flavors was Dyson’s next-to-last album for Columbia Records. Like a previous effort, Chuck Jackson and Marvin Yancy produced it in Chicago. This is a fine set, but with no hits to push it it dropped from sight without fanfare. The best of the nine includes updates of “Sara Smile” and “I Want to Be Where You Are,” the bouncy “Don’t Be Afraid,” and “Ain’t Nothing Wrong”.
